1963–64 Yorkshire Cup

The 1963–64 Yorkshire Cup was the fifty-sixth occasion on which the Yorkshire Cup competition had been held.

Halifax won the trophy by beating Featherstone Rovers by the score of 10-0

The match was played at Belle Vue, in the City of Wakefield, now in West Yorkshire. The attendance was 13,238 and receipts were £2,471.

Background

This season there were no junior/amateur clubs taking part, no new entrants and no "leavers" and so the total of entries remained the same at sixteen.

This in turn resulted in no byes in the first round.
